I found this in chat for the earnings breakout setup and was watching for the ORB. it finally broke trend at $8.5 with 9 ema curling under. I chased it a little as I have been trying to wait for the candle to hold. I had a target of $9.20 but it stalled out in the $8.90s. I sold for a small gain as it pulled back to VWAP. I should have taken profits earlier in this choppy market then re-entered on the VWAP bounce. It eventually hit my target. I exited due to not having time to watch it grind back up after testing VWAP.

I learned that I'm seeing my setups correctly and that I need to trust the knowledge that I have.
